Commitment Breakdown: What Auburn is getting in 4-star S Anquon Fegans

Everything you need to know about new Auburn commit, 4-star safety Anquon Fegans from Alabaster (Ala.) Thompson.

The Fegans File

— Fegans has a ton of length for a guy who is around 6-foot tall. He is able to high-point the ball, get off the ground in a hurry, and creat turnovers at a high rate.

— There are very few safeties with gamechanging ability in college football. Fegans has that ability. He can make plays that change the outcome of the game. He is always lurking to pick the ball off and has a high success rate in doing so.

Auburn fit

— Fegans fits Auburn at either safety spot. He can play in the field or on the boundary.

— In college, he might be better served playing on the boundary as he is excellent at jumping in passing lanes and disrupting the ball in the air.

Football IQ

— I think Fegans is less versatile simply because he needs to be in control of the backend. He can be a true quarterback on the field.

— Fegans’ eyes at safety are that of a veteran college safety. He doesn’t just know where to be, he is usually one step ahead of the quarterback.

SEC readiness

I would argue that Fegans is the most SEC ready prospect in Auburn’s class. I think he is a day one contrbuter, if not pushing for a starting job. He is ready to be an SEC safety–and a good one.

In-person eval notes

— Natural and fluid as a safety, but big enough to pack a punch. He has very good hips and plays with very good technique. He understands football at a high level. 

— Fegans had two picks on the night, one of which was a pick-6.

— Fegans is probably a boundary safety on the next level. He comes down in run-support very well, but covers extremely well, too. 

— He is going to be a high-priority for Auburn in the 2025 class.
